Repeated Words / Echo Finder

检测近距离重复——同一个词在 N 个词的可配置窗口内被重复使用。编辑工具,用于发现无意的回声。

何时使用

Use the repeated-words finder when editing fiction, essays, or any prose where close repetition reads as a stylistic mistake. Particularly powerful for technical writers who unconsciously reuse jargon.

与其他指标对比

Word Frequency surfaces *what* is overused; Repeated Words surfaces *where* the repetition is too close. Use both when editing.

工作原理

The finder records every position of every content word in the text, then surfaces pairs of occurrences that fall within a configurable window (default 50 words).

It excludes function words (the, of, and) by default since they're expected to repeat constantly.

Results are sorted by closest distance — the word with the tightest repetition is on top.

常见问题

What's a good window size?

Default 50 words catches paragraph-level repeats. Use 20 for sentence-level only; 100 for page-level.

Why are short words excluded?

Short words are usually function words (the, of, and) that repeat constantly. Min length 4 filters them out by default.

Is some repetition okay?

Yes — for emphasis, parallelism, or anaphora. The tool flags candidates; you decide.

示例

输入

"The garden was beautiful. The garden bloomed early. The garden smelled sweet."

输出

"garden" used 3 times — closest pair just 4 words apart.

"Garden" is repeated within a tight window. A copy editor would diversify: "the plot", "the beds", "the borders".

常见陷阱

  • Some repetition is deliberate — for emphasis, parallelism, or anaphora.
  • Window size is a heuristic — 50 words catches paragraph-level repeats; 20 catches sentence-level only.
  • Function words ("the", "and") repeat constantly; keep the stopword filter on.
  • Domain terms ("API", "database") often must repeat in technical docs — adjust expectations.
